Responsibilities ("PDMRs")
The transactions in ordinary shares of US$0.50 each ("Shares") in HSBC

1. Long Term Incentive Awards
Long term incentive awards ("LTI awards") were made to the PDMRs named below,
as part of variable pay for the performance year ended 31 December 2025. An
LTI award is an award of Shares in the Company, with a three-year
forward-looking performance period commencing on 1 January 2026 and ending on
31 December 2028.
At the end of this performance period, the number of Shares that vest will be
determined based upon an assessment by the Group Remuneration Committee of
performance against financial and non-financial measures in the LTI scorecard,
as detailed in the Directors' Remuneration Report in the Annual Report and
Accounts 2025. Subject to that assessment, shares for Executive Directors will
vest in five equal annual instalments commencing from March 2029, with a
one-year retention period following vesting. Shares for Other PDMRs will vest
in two tranches, 75% in March 2029 and 25% in March 2030.
The LTI awards were made in London and are based upon the average closing
Share price on the London Stock Exchange on the five days starting 2 March
2026 which is £12.82.
